People with high blood pressure (or hypertension) need to watch their diet because diet can have a significant impact on blood pressure.

High blood pressure occurs when the force exerted by blood against artery walls is high and, if not controlled, can lead to serious health problems such as stroke, heart failure and kidney disease.

Diet plays an important role in controlling blood pressure, and a few simple dietary changes can make a big difference.

For example, reducing sodium intake (found in foods such as table salt, processed, canned, and fast food) can help lower blood pressure in many people.

Additionally, a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein can help lower blood pressure and improve overall heart health.

Other dietary factors that can affect blood pressure include excessive alcohol consumption, intake of saturated and trans fats, and high consumption of sugar and processed foods.

It is important to remember that each person is unique and that nutritional needs may vary depending on age, gender, physical activity level, medical history and other factors.
